I joined the local pub pool comp on the invitation of a few that have seen me play and think I'm worthy. Since joining, my game has deteriorated drastically..The only game i'm good at is pool, i played in some tournaments and various pub leagues. I played a 21 player tournament and came second, i was pissed out of my head. The pub put on a great spread of food and a great chilli.
This is something else.

Wake up, there's some pool talk you're missing out on golfboy
That's a US table with buckets for pockets, and heavier / larger balls which are much easier to swerve.
Chris normally plays on UK 8 ball tables but for TV they have even made those tables much easier than the old UK Super League tables to make it look more 'entertaining' on TV (and make the players look even better).
They have increased the pocket width by a quarter inch, moved the pocket drop forward massively and even dropped the cushion size to make 'tight rail shots' easier too.
Here's a comparison (green is the old super league spec and the grey are the new TV tables).

I love pool, not played for a while due to not many pubs with a pool table and the fact i very rarely go to a pub!! Great memories from back in the day and some great times, sad times though what with the closing of many pubs accross the UK.That's a US table with buckets for pockets, and heavier / larger balls which are much easier to swerve.
